Paper tubes astonishing emergency architecture

A couple of months back I learnt a very fascinating use of newspaper . The art of turning newspaper tubes into baskets . I made one in 4 hours . Started the second and procrastinated till yesterday to complete it . The finished product looked decent despite the lack of symmetry.

I marvelled at the sturdiness of the newspaper tubes as the first one I made six months back survived and is still in use .

The first one I made.

This made me wonder how many useful eco-friendly things could be created with paper. Let's attribute it to the Law of Attraction , I found a video that gave an astonishing insight . An architect who created Emergency shelters from paper tubes in disaster areas .

Have a look at this video and be amazed. I am sure you would end up admiring creativity and innovation all over again :). Hats off !!!

Thoughts are always there swinging somewhere between sanity and insanity .... sometimes they linger , sometimes illuminate and sometimes evaporate... but sometimes they need a space to turn into a piece of my mind... these are just thoughts of a wandering ,pensive, exploring mind.....
